Someone please bleach the back of a T Tobacco card (even nonsport) and show me a before and after pic...
There are E145 (Cracker Jack) cards that have been bleached to remove stains and make borders whiter, but they are easy to spot.
If it was so easily done (bleaching 100% of the ink), then why in heck arent there more "doctored" blank backed T206's floating around ??
A blank back T206 WILL sell for far more $$ than most of the other back.
That would be a far easier way of making $$ for a scammer, if it was possible to remove all of the printing with no evidence.
Trying to find 100 year old ink (still good), and re-designing the exact match of the font, color, spacing, and design etc of a Drum, Uzit, Broadleaf 460 back, is not going to happen. Or we would have seen obvious evidence by now as many in the "doctoring" game dont know the possible front/back combos
I know they can bleach Topps cards, why not T206's where the premium for a Blank Back is 10X+...... That would be easier $$ than counterfeit bills, if it were true.
ie. buy a $30 T206 card, bleach it, flip it for $300+
Makes no sense to me, personally. or it would have been done by now by every scam artist out there.
